Installed my magnaflows 14829's today!
Temperature was 29 degrees today in NYC , but that didnt stop me from getting my magnaflows installed. The exhuasts made the car sound a lot more sporty and more aggressive. It has kind of a deep rumble like the G35. I went with 2.25" piping which was basically the same as the stock pipe but eliminated as much of the bends as i could compared to the stock piping. I wanted the exhaust piping from the cat-back but the stock y-pipe was fine according to the muffler shop. I didnt have a y-pipe on me, and was advised not to have them fabricate a Y-pipe due to the fact that it may not have even pressure on both pipes. I had them cut the stock exhaust right after the stock Y-pipe. I am happy with my new mod and may possibly add that y-pipe extension if i feel later on it makes a difference but as of now this is as straight as i could have the piping done.
The mufflers were purchased from Hottexhaust. com, thanks to Mteele for the thread on that.
I purchased both exhausts and the total came out to under $190 with free shipping.
This is the streetseries brand of the magnaflow mufflers and the piping shown in the pictures are on a 97 SC300.
Here are the long awaited pics in the freezing cold:

Magnaflow only has like one or two 2.5" mufflers with tips and they are fugly. I want one exactly like the ones in this thread but in 2.5". I don't want 3" yet because being N/A, for now, I don't want it being another obnoxiously loud n/a "import". But either way, I am really diggin' this Sleeper97's exhaust.
